Alex here with a special edition of the internal podcast. I'm joined today by Nikki, our VP of People here at BuildWitt. We chat about the role of the "People" team at BuildWitt. We also discuss the responsibility of HR to the team AND our responsibility to the HR crew. Thanks to Nikki for the transparent and engaging conversation.

Aaron and Alex chat about astronaut ice cream, seeing how all the pieces of BuildWitt contribute to making the Dirt World a better place and making new goals more achievable. They then discuss questions about lessons learned during the current Series A fundraising round.

This week on the internal podcast, Aaron and Alex catch up about Aaron's upcoming travel and time off, and then they answer questions about what Aaron's focus will be when after Series A fundraising ends and what Aaron's favorite movie is.

Thanks y'all!

Aaron and Alex are back and apparently need a low-key catchup. The touch on rental cars, a bear park in Switzerland, and the difference between first class and business class on a plane. Then Aaron answers questions about his love for "hipster" coffee shops and the reality of how people communicate that they don't believe that he/BuildWitt will reach huge goals.

Aaron goes solo (with support from Harrison) while Alex was out on vacation and reviewed a conversation that he had with the leadership team. He reads excerpts from the book 5 Dysfunctions of a Team and then digs into each.

Head of People Nikki DeLuca sits down with Aaron to talk about our team, and how her previous experience led her to her current role at BuildWitt. Together they field internal questions from the BuildWitt Team about how to communicate who we are to the rest of the Dirt World and what we can take from Jim Collins’ book Great by Choice.

This week on the internal podcast, Alex and Aaron jump around on a handful of topics, including doing work that aligns with your gifts. They also answer questions about what Aaron wanted to be when he was a kid and what's the most fun part about building the company.

This week, Alex chats with Garret Brent, who is an Implementation Manager here at BuildWitt. They discuss Garret's winding career journey (that included a stop in the USAF), why he would leave a job and team that he really cared about, and what really drives him.

Thanks y'all!

This week on the internal podcast, Aaron and Alex give a quick update on the newest fundraising round, and then they recap the Open House held at the BuildWitt office. Later, they discuss being well-traveled vs well-read and sharing (or not sharing) unpopular opinions at work.

Thanks y'all!

This week on the internal podcast, Aaron and Alex discuss a handful of heavier topics, including why Aaron feels compelled to spend so much time on work, why it made sense for Aaron and Angel to go to Saudi Arabia (even with its complicated reputation globally), and the potential trickiness, as BuildWitt continues to grow, of Aaron continuing to get to know everyone who comes to work at BuildWitt.

Thanks to all of the BuildWitt team. Stay Dirty!
